Data validation doesn't work if contents is added by pasting

Hi
I've data validation set so that only the number 1 can be entered, but
even this cannot be entered if an adjacent cell is a certain value.
this works for direct entry, but not if the value is pasted in or added
using the "drag handle".
Is there any way to stop this happening as I just know somewones going
to try and fill all the cells by draging the values down.
Regards
Jeff

Jeff,
You could disable "Allow cell drag and drop" in Tools | Options or...
copy the following code, right click the sheet tab and choose
'view code'. Paste the code into the module.
It does not take the "adjacent" cell in to account however.
Also, any formula that returns a value of 1 is allowed.
Change B5 to the correct cell.
'----------------------------
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo ChangeErr
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Address = "$B$5" Then ' <<<correct
If Len(Target.Value) Then
If Target.Value <> 1 Then Target.ClearContents
End If
End If
ChangeErr:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

horizontal data to vertical dataI have a set of data list in the horizontal manner. Is there a macro that
can send this data vertically instead of manually doing it?
Thanks in advance.
Aloysicus
One way ..
Assume source data is in Sheet1, A1:E1
In Sheet2
Put in A1:
=OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,COLUMNS($A$1:A1)-1,ROWS($A$1:A1)-1)
Copy A1 down by as many rows as there are columns in Sheet1, i.e. down to A5
A1:A5 will return whats in A1:E1 in Sheet1

Difficulty Aligning Series Data With Proper DatesI ‘m building a column graph using Excel 2007 and I’m having difficulty
aligning a series of data with the proper dates. I have 2 series of data –
Series 1: Includes a value for each quarter in 2009 (e.g., Mar-09, Jun-09,
etc). Series 2: Includes a value for each quarter in 2010 (e.g., Mar-10,
Jun-10, etc). After creating each series, I select the appropriate dates
(Series 1 – 2009 dates / Series 2 – 2010 dates). The first issue that I’m
having is that when I select the second set of dates (for Series 2), it
overrides the first – so the x-axis initially shows 2009 dates, but then

storing read only dataI work for a powder coating company and want to make a program that will store all of the data on each part. I want to be able to go to the computer type in a part number and retrieve all of the data for that part. It has to be read onlyso that it can only be edited by a supervisor. I was told i could use excel for this and an "at" function was mentioned. thank you
If the info fits in 256 columns, you can put the part number in column A and the
info in B:IV.
Then apply data|filter|autofilter and use that to just show the parts you want.
If the data is more than 256 columns, you co...

export public folder data?Am in the process of performing an Alternate server recovery of an Exchange
2003 Information Store. The reason being that on the current server all the
email has dissappeared from the public folder mail folders...its a very
strange situation indeed. Hoping that by restoring an earlier backup to a
different machine we can see if the emails will return. If they do, is there
a way I could export the contents of these folders back into the current info
store? I gather that Exmerge will only work on Mailboxes and not Public
Folders...
Many thanks in advance,

How to organize data?I am a frustrated Excel newbie. I grit my teeth every time I
have to use Excel. But I need to create a small database of
records and chart it's monthly progression, and I think
Excel is probably the best program for the job.
Only, I don't know who to do this.
Please bear with me as I really need help with this.
Say that I have a short list of vendors in different cities.
For each vendor I have a total # of items in their inventory

Switchboard Me.FilterOn not working in 2007 Full VersionThanks for your time, first off!
Situation is this: A 2002 database in place for years with a stock
Switchboard - no tweaks, nothing out of the ordinary. Compiled FE works fine
for 2002 runtime and full version.
A User moved to 2007 and the client is not filtering as expected. When User
loads into the uncompiled FE they are able to click "Toggle Filter" on the
ribbon and the SW works fine. (Of course, the TF button is unavailable in the
compiled FE - and this should not be necessary anyway.)

Selecting specific data #2Hi everyone
I have another little problem.
I have got a list of 20 items on sheet1, Cells A1 - A20 (numbered 1 - 20) and Cells B1 - B20 are items relating to that number, ie, number 1 = Concrete, number 2 = walls, and so on.
Now on sheet 2 I have a table, again cell range A1:B20. I would like to know a formula so that when I enter a number in to column A, the corresponding item to that number appears in column B.
ie, if I enter number 8 in Cell A1 on sheet 2, then I would like Floor to appear in Cell B1.
Does this make sense?

What was your data migration experience for MS CRM 3.0?Has anyone used DMF 3.0 to migrate data into CRM using its wizards or
stored proceedures?
What happened and how did you do it?
Andy
It's a bit unwieldy, but if you follow the documentation closely and do
thorough tests it is a helpful tool. You should be prepared to do some
extensive data cleansing and search the newsgroups when you hit a roadblock.

Last Column With DataHow do I check a certain row to find out the last column in the row that has
data?
Dim myRow as long
dim LastCol as long
myrow = 1243
with worksheets("SomeSheetnamehere")
lastcol = .cells(myrow,.columns.count).end(xltoleft).column
end with
msgbox LastCol
This will break if you've used the last column in that row -- or if you haven't
used any cells in that row.
Is that a problem?

data file: how to start its applicationHello! I have a byte array in memory for a file and also its filename
(actually a mail attachment). Now I want to "open" this file. In case of a
"*.doc" file I have to find the association (winword), run that program and
give it a path to my memory or something like that.
I think the simplest way to achieve this is to save the data into a temp
file (GetTempPath + actual file name, overwriting any previous one), and
then running RunCmd somehow and Windows knows what to do. I know how to
write the file, but a RunCmd command doesn't exist or I haven't found

Why doesnt this work?I have two sheets. The one called CorpClaims and one called Summary, the
latter is where I want the answer. On CorpClaims is a list of data with
various headings such as DateofLoss, Amount, DescriptionofLoss etc
On Summary is a small table that has Description of Loss down the left in
Column A, in row 2 is the applicable month (the input would be 01/08/2009 for
August 09 and formatted as Aug 09). Then the value part of the table would be
the sum of all amounts that fall under the Description of Loss, (which is
defined in column AJ) that fall in a certain month.

Vertical Data ExtractionHi,
I need to create a chart that is based on changing values. The Values are
all stored vertically in a Worksheet called Percentage. The chart sheet
contains a selection box where the user can select a specific search and a

display results.
Basically, when the user selects X in the first list box and Y in the second
one, the code should search the Percentage worksheet for all instances of
value=x and y and output.

How to Identify Changes In Two Work SheetsI have two different dated inventory lists with 3,074 of identical line
items. I want to determine the "items" that have "sold units" from two lists
since they reflect ending inventory on separate dates. I want to create a
new work sheet with those "items" only whose ending units are different from
the units on the first ending report. The items are in the Desc 1 column in
both work sheets along with their vendor code, size & quantity.

Varying data ranges
Hi,
I am preparing a large number of identical reports on Excel fro
imported data of varying sizes (e.g. some imported data is 400 row
long, some 600, but all have the same number of columns). I hav
recorded macros to take the data from its raw form to its complete
form in order to releive the repetitive nature of this process, howeve
the macro does not take into account the varying sizes of the raw data
even when I use the Ctrl+Shft+End command. I am left with a lot o
manual 'tidying up' of the reports after the macros have run.
I have around 1,800 reports to complete so if ther...

Baffled by missing data on printoutI have a bunch of subforms that the user will fill out from a main form. I
then save all that data into a local table, then read it back from a report.
The report loads the same subforms which reload the data. All that is
working fine on screen, and on print preview.
Then, when sent to a printer, all te text boxes are blank! What could
*possibly* cause this? I switched printers, used a pdf output printer (save
to disk in PDF), and with same results. Any ideas?
